Keydelay is a program to enhance batch files. It accepts a one or two
digit number from the command line of between 1 and 99. It than waits for
either a keypress or a period of time equal to the number of seconds specified
on the command line. If the ESC key is pressed, the program returns an
ERRORLEVEL of one. Pressing any other key or allowing the delay to elapse
without pressing a key causes the program to return an ERRORLEVEL of 0.
Included in the distribution ZIP file with this COM file is a simple
batch file, KEYDELY.BAT which is an example of the program's operation.
Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
